Beats Music has updated its iOS, Android and Windows Phone applications with a few new features, including a way to tune the Beats recommendation engine manually for better suggestions, a new history view for The Sentence, the Songza-like Madlibs playback engine, Verified Badges, which add a checkmark to celebrity profiles so you know they’re the real deal. The Beats Music app also has some player improvements that deliver better playback and general performance, as is often the case with software updates. This is the first significant update to the music app following the announcement that Apple would be acquiring the Beats Music brand along with Beats Electronics. The changes reflect changes that seems designed to answer feedback provided by users, and to make available some functionality that reviewers though was potentially missing.
